I didn't change the file sources.list though, I just did an apt-get update first to check if there were any updates for me, and there was.

I'm not sure what it did upgrade though but when I try to start apache I get:

Code:

www:/var/log/httpd# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Forcing reload of web server: Apache2 ... failed!
You may still have some apache2 processes running. There are
processes named 'apache2' which do not match your pid file,
and in the name of safety, we've left them alone. Please review
the situation by hand.
Syntax error on line 48 of /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf:
Invalid command 'php_admin_flag', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration

I've searched the forums for a while now and the only problem I think I might have is that mod_php isn't loaded. Why is that setting lost and how can I fix it?

I'm not that confident around apache, php and linux but I'm good at following instructions. It's just a pain in the behind that everything gets messed up as soon as you try to use this friggin' system...

Please help me, this server is in some sort of production and I have to get it up and running

If you run apt-get upgrade or apt-get dist-upgrade it will upgrade your system. If you use apt-get install, apt will install the package and if it is already installed apt will look if there are newer packages and makes an update.

After reading the above, quoted from the link I posted, I though it was perfectly fine to use the install command. It was fine too, untill the server tried to start the webserver again. It found a few packages to upgrade and did so, there were no errors in the installation procedure what I know of.

I've rebooted the machine now but I don't seem to get it up and running again. It's a remote server so I have to get back to you with the updates. Have to make a few calls and get people to boot it up for me

Is there no way to install mod_php without reinstalling everything? I just can't see the fun in reinstalling the entire server everytime some upgrade/change mess it up.
